Description

Feature Request

It would be good to have configuration file options for how to apply cost data multipliers

Suggested Solution

A simple implementation of the options we could add is given below.

costs:
  multipliers:
     regional:
       capex: true # apply capex multipliers at a state level
       fuel: true # apply fuel costs at a state level
     temporal:
       fuel: true # apply monthly variance in fuel costs

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating configuration parsing and the code that applies regional and temporal cost multipliers, then trace the existing cost-data flow. Done means the proposed costs.multipliers.regional and costs.multipliers.temporal options control the listed capex and fuel adjustments.
